Some of those included failing to sell certain Yeezy clothes in Gap stores last year. As per Gravante, the retailer also failed to open stores that would sell only Yeezy clothing.

Gravante also said that Ye will now focus on opening his own Yeezy clothing stores, and has plans to "go at it alone." West’s lawyer told CNBC that his client notified Gap of its concerns in August and gave the company 30 days to respond. The company, according to Gravante, took no action on Ye's concerns. “Yeezy notified Gap of its concerns in August and gave the company a contractually-designated 30 days to cure its breaches.” In a statement to CBS, Gravante said:
“Ye had diligently tried to work through these issues with Gap both directly and through counsel (but) he has gotten nowhere.

Gap left him no choice but to terminate their agreement.” Last year, when the deal was announced, the estimated value of Kanye’s Yeezy Gap collection was set at $970 million. Gap, in an email, acknowledged that the agreement with Kanye was ending. Gap brand president Mark Breitbard, in an email to his employees, wrote:
“While we share a vision of bringing high-quality, trend-forward, utilitarian design to all people through unique omni experiences with Yeezy Gap, how we work together to deliver this vision is not aligned.

The company originally said Yeezy Gap merchandise was expected to appear in stores in 2021. However, the release date kept getting pushed back. Gap was supposed to sell 40% of the Yeezy Gap clothing line in brick and mortar stores during the last two quarters of 2021.
